for a minute more

we have no quarrel
with the fox

nor he with us. all three

still and quiet,
neither approaching
or in retreat.

our eyes though,
do meet

in the amber glow
of 
streetlight.
the bloom of our breath

in front of us.

we wait. he waits.
our conversation 
interrupted

as we discus the rest
of our life,

together or apart,
that is now on hold

for a minute more.
